Early Settlements 

The beautiful and thriving town of Pittsfield, sit- 
uated in the broad, level valley ot the Sebasticook 
River, was not among the earliest towns to be settled 
in the State. Nothing definite is known of this site 
previous to 1794, when Moses Martin, who had pre- 
viously penetrated the unbroken forest on a hunting 
expedition, came trom Norridgewock, built a log cabin 
and commenced a clearing for a farm. Of the history 
previous to this time we have only the light ot general 
history and of local tradition. The famous tribe ot 
Norridgewock Indians for many generations roamed 
throughout the length and breadth of the Kennebec 
Valley, unmolested by any save their enemy of another 



6 HISTORICAL 

stock of red men. At Norridgewock they had a 
flourishing village where, just a century before, Mr. 
Martin built his log cabin near the Sebasticook River. 
Sebastian Rasle, a Jesuit, came to teach the Indians the 
doctrine of the Christian church. From this village 
they roamed over this entire section, and the valley oi 
the Sebasticook must have been to them the favorite 
hunting grounds of this vicinity. We are also in- 
formed that within the memory of some now living, a 
branch of the Penobscot tribe frequently visited Peltoma 
Point, where, tradition says, is one of their ancient 
burying-grounds and the resting place of a chief who 
bore that name. In the light of the foregoing facts, we 
have only to study the history of nations, savage or civi- 
lized to see that this border land must have been the scene 
of many bloody conflicts in times of hostilities between 
these two powerful nations. But our forefathers were 
not molested, for both these native tribes were fast be- 
coming extinct. True and pathetic are the words of 
Charles Sprague: 



"Alas! for them, tfieir days are o'er, 

Tfieir fires are out from fiill and sfiore; 

No more for tliem, the wild deer bounds. 

The plow is on their hunting grounds; 

The pale man's axe rings through their woods, 

The pale man's sail skims o'er their floods. 

Cold with the breast he slew, he sleeps; 

O'er him no filial spirit weeps; 

No crowds throng 'round, no anthem notes ascend 



HISTORICAL 7 

To bless his coming and embalm his end; 
Even that he lived, is for his conquerer's tongue, 
By foes alone, his death song must be sung." 

Mr. Martin whom we have ah-eady mentioned as 
the first settler, came up the river with the Indians and 
settled the farm where his grandson Perry Martin now 
lives, near Peltoma Point. He married a Miss Parker 
and had a family of twelve children. His son, Jessie, 
bcino; the first white child born in Pittsfield. In 1818 
he built the house now standing at the old home- 
stead which is claimed to have been the first 
framed house built in this town. In 1800 came 
George Brown, from Norridgewock, William Bradford 
and a Mr. Wyman from Vassalboro. Messers Brown 
and Wyman built the first mills. In 1804 John Libby 
and John Spearing came here from Fairfield and settled 
east of Libby's Pond. John Merrick settled near them 
in 1806, coming from Hallowell. Ephraim Higgins 
came from Mt. Desert in 1808 and located on the farm 
now the home ol his grandson in the western part ot 
the town. Samuel Bennett came in 1810. IniSiiJohn 
Hart settled on the lot next above Mr. Higgins and the 
same year Dominicus Gatchell settled here coming 
from West Anson. Richard Hackett a Revolutionary 
Soldier came from Strong, about 181 2, and settled on 
the Charles Farnham place about one mile south of the 
village and the lollowing year Joseph McCauslin came 
from Hallowell and settled near the Detroit line east 
of the village. In the river between his house and 



8 HISTORICAL 

Moses Martin's was the old ford where the river was 
generally crossed until the bridge was built near the 
mills. The same year (i8i3)John Webb came from 
Waterville with his newly wedded wife, Mary and his 
father-in-law Josiah Jacobs. Mr. Webb located on 
the lot — Range 7, Lot 6, now comprising the A. II. 
Ta3'lor and E. E. Johnson farms. His house being 
located near the spot now occupied by Mr. Johnson's 
buildings. Mr. Webb took a very active interest in 
the early at^airs and used his dwelling house as a town 
house for fourteen years after the incorporation of 
Warsaw or until they were changed to the school 
house in Mr. Webb's district. Of Mr. Jacob's sons, 
Josiah Jr., settled on the John Cross farm one hall mile 
below Mr. Webb's, and Aaron built his cabin on the 
Charles Taylor farm. William Parks came from Rich- 
mond about the 3ear 1814 and settled on the Libby 
place just across the river from Mr. Martin's, in the 
edge of Detroit. In 1830 he moved to Pittsfield and 
settled on what is now Hartland Ave. on the old Parks 
homestead. 

Timothy Mclntyre and Stevens Kendall were also 
prominent in guiding the affairs of the early plantation 
and township, but the exact date of their arrival is un- 
known. Charles, James and Timothy McKinney were 
also among the early settlers here. 

Probabl}' none of the early settlers contributed so 
much to the prosperity and healthy growth of the town 
as Jesse Connor, who came here from Gardiner in 



HISTORICAL 9 

1 814. He lived in a house which stood on the sight 
now occupied by the Dobson block. Soon after his 
coming here he purchased the mill property of a Mr. 
Bradford, who is supposed to have owned it in con- 
nection with Dominicus Getchell. Mr. Connor was 
the fiist to open a store. This he kept in one end of 
his house. There were no roads so he was obliged 
to so to Gardiner through the forest on horseback to 
procure his goods. He was the projector and princi- 
pal means of building the first county road now known 
as the river road. He continued actively in the mill 
business, running both a saw and grist mill until 1833, 
when he sold to 'Going Hathorne. 

Another very prominent man in the earl}' affairs 
of the town was Capt. David Pushor, who came from 
Fairfield the Christmas of 1816 and settled near Sibley 
Pond, but soon moved to the lot now known as the 
McMaster farm. His brother, Amos, settled near him. 
Capt. Pushor filled many places of trust in the town 
being the first constable, tax collector and moderator. 

Phillip Powers came here in 18 18 from Canaan 
and settled near Power's Corner. He had seven chil- 
dren of whom Arba and Phillip settled near him. Both 
of these had large families and man}' ol the sons have 
become leading figures in the political and educational 
field, our own Governor, Llewllyn Powers, being the 
oldest son of Arba Powers. Adam Powers, a brother 
to Phillip Jr., surveyed many of the early roads in the 
town. John F. Weymouth was also a leader in the 
affairs of the early town. 



lO HISTORICAL 

Another important family was that of Joseph C.- 
Patten who came from Skowhegan (then Canaan) in 
1820. His six sons settled what is known as the 
Patten Neighborhood and have taken a great interest 
in the affairs of their adopted town. 

Elder William Getchell, a Free Baptist minister, 
was a very useful man among the settlers here, 
coming from Getchell Corner, in Vassalboro. He lo- 
cated on the farm now owned by Mr. Frederick, on 
the river road, where he made a home for his famil}', 
and for tifty years went around, throughout the sur- 
rounding districts, preaching the gospel of Christian 
love, uniting in marriage the hardy youths and maidens 
of this early period and performing the last rites, when 
death made an end of life. 

Other names previous to 1823 — many ot these 
who took a leading part in the town affairs, are: John 
Berry, Eben Burton, Nathan Burton, Elijah Buzzell, 
Elisha Dodge, Winthrop Eldridge, William Fair- 
brother, Jedediah Fowler, Jeremiah Gahan, Joseph

were incorporated a town by the name of Warsaw, 
Esq. Bridge of Augusta, one of the principal land 
holders, selecting the name.

Church History 

DENOMINATIONS 

UNIVERSALIST CHURCH 

The first successful movement for the permanent 
organization ol the Universalists of Pittsfield began 
early in May, 1867, and was perfected at a meeting 
called for the purpose on Ma}- 27, 1867, in the Union 
meeting house which was built in 1857 and stood on 
the site of the present Univcrsalist church. This or- 
ganization was made in the interest of "Liberal Chris- 
tianity," those who made it beliving that there was an 
urgent demand for high and enlightened conceptions 
in the field of religion. There were forty-two who 
formed this first organization. The parish was organ- 
ized on Jannar}- 20, 1882. It was incorporated under 
the State general law on November 7, 1892. In 1871 
the Universalists bought out the interests of those not 
Universalits in the Church property, and at that time 
greatly remodeled the structure. This building stood 
until 1898 when it was torn down and in its place the 
present beautiful edifice was erected at a cost of $20,- 
500. The dedication wss on June 21, 1899. The pas- 
tors have been. Rev. James H. Smith, i866-'68; Rev. 
George W. Qiiimby, i868-'7o; Rev. David B. Byther, 
i87o-'72; Rev. Elijah Case, 1872-^74; Rev. Norris C.

Rev. J. H. Little, i89i-'92- Rev. E. A. Read, i892-'96; 
Rev. H. E. Townsend, i896-'97; Rev. Leroy W 
Coons 1897 to the present time. The Universalist 
people in Pittsfield now number about two hundred 
and sixt}' families and their work is ver}' prosperous. 
There is a Young People's Christian Union in this 
church. 



FREE BAPTIST 

The Free Baptist societ}' was organized June 21, 
1855, under the present name of the Pittsfield and 
Detroit Free Baptist Church, with nine members. For 
four years the services were held at the members' 
dwellings or at the village school house. In 1857 the 
East Pittsfield Union Meeting House was built by the 
combined elTort of all the Christian people m this sec- 
tion, and here this society worshiped having their own 
pastor, who preached every second Sabbath, alter- 
nating with the Universalist pastor. When the 
Institute building was completed in 1869, they sold 
their interest in the Union Meeting House and began 
worshiping in this new Free Baptist school building. 
The same year a Sabbath School was organized at the 
village school house. This society has had a phenom- 
enal growth. 



HISTORICAL 19 

On Febriiar}' 21, 1892, the beautiful editice on 
Main Street, near the Institute, was dedicated to the 
worship of God. The parsonage is situated on the In- 
stitute property near the dormitor}', and is in keeping 
with its beautiful surroundings. The present member- 
ship is one hundred and ninet3'-two resident members 
and hft3'-eight non-resident, making a total oftwo hun- 
dred tilty members. The 3'oung people of the church 
have a prosperous Christian Endeavor Societ}'. The 
pastors who have served the church, with their term of 
service, are as follows: Rev, R. Copp from 1855 to 
1859: Rev. A. L. Gerrish from 1866 to 1876; Rev. J. 
B. Davis from 1876 to 1878; Rev. Alfred E. Hogbin, 
from 1878 to 79; Rev. James Boyd from 1879 to 1880.

L. White from 1896 to 1899; Rev. F. D. George from 
1899 to 1901; Rev. O. H. Tracy, November 27, 1901. 

METHODIST FPISCOPAL CHURCH 

The first Methodist class in Pittsfield was formed 
by Theodore Gerrish about 1870, and consisted of but 
nine members. A chapel was erected for worship in 
1872, which was remodeled and enlarged during the 
pastorate of Mr. Hamilton, about seven 3'ears ago. 
Now the3" have a modern and convenient edifice, cen- 
trally located on Mason Street. Those who have 
served as pastors, and their dates of appointment, are 
as follows: Theodore Gerrish served until 1878;

Street and a parsonage will be erected during the 
summer of 1904. An Epworth League is liberally sup- 
ported by the 3'oung people of the church. 

CATHOLIC CHURCH 

A Catholic society was formed in the village 
several years ago. Regular services have been held 
in Perkins Hall, by Father Kealey of Belfast. The 
society has just erected a new church on Detroit Ave., 
through the efibrts of Father Keale}' and his church, 
the}' having received the liberal co-operation of Pitts- 
field's leading business men. 

RURAL 

There is no church in town outside of the village, 
but undenominational services are often held at the 
Webb school house, Carr school house and Powers 
school house, by preachers from surrounding churches 



HISTORICAL 21 

or by theological students from the Institute. Rev. 
Ora Chase of Canaan at one time held regular services 
at the Webb and Carr school houses where he had 
revival services in 1892, and established weekly prayer 
meetings which were held lor several years. 



Educational 



From earliest records the town has given liberal 
support to its educational interests. The first year of 
its incorporation saw $150 raised for the support ot 
schools. We find that Elizabeth Merrick taught fif- 
teen weeks in 18 19 at two dollars per week, and Lydia 
Fuller thirteen and one-half weeks in 1820 at one 
dollar per week, thus the amount raised supported 
several weeks of school in each of the five districts. 
In 1823 these districts were unnumbered. In 1825 
there were one hundred and seventy-one scholars; in 
1828 two hundred and fift>'; m 1841 four hundred and 
nineteen; and in 1844 four hundred and ninety-seven. 
This remarkable increase shows the rate at which new 
families were settling in town. Most of them had 
lamilies of from four to ten children, Moses Martin 
and David Taylor each raised families of twelve. 



22 HISTORICAL 

THE jNfAINE CENTRAL INSTITUTE 

As the town increased the need of a higher insti- 
tution of learning was felt and in 1866 a school charter 
was granted by the legislature to establish the Maine 
Central Institute. The school was opened the same 
year, but the present building was not completed until 
I §69. The building, which is a substantial and impos- 
ing brick structure, 118 by 68 feet is three stories above 
the basement, with a bell tower and bell. 

It is beautifully situated on a high point of 1-and, 
and may be distinctly seen from the surrounding 
country for long distances. The lot comprising 200 
acres, was the gift of Going Hathorn. It is a valuable 
situation on the west side of Main St., in the southern 
part of the village. The grounds are beautifully laid 
out with walks and drives, studded on either side with 
rows of maples. In 1896 Powers Hall was finished oft 
in the Institute building, by the Alumni at a cost of 
about $5000. George Powers an Alumnus of the 
Maine Central Institute and the one for whom the new 
hall is named gave about $3000 of the amount. The 
hall is one of the finest school halls in the state. In 
1893 the institute was made a free high school to ad- 
vanced students in town. The last season has seen the 
dormitory situated near the school building greatly 
enlarged and improved. An efficient board of instruc- 
tion has charge of the school. In 1900 Prof. F. N. 
Landman, A. B., succeded O. H. Drake as Principal. 



HISTORICAL 23 

He has had fifteen years experience as an instructor 
and has proven himself an able leader.

mental Music; Mrs. E. C. Bryant, Phonography and 
T3'pewriting; Ethel B. Vicker}', A. B., Elocution. 
This is a Free Baptist institution and a fitting school for 
Bates College with two literary societies. The public 
schools have made rapid progress and advancement in 
methods, and in establishing new schools in the village 
as the increase in the number of scholars demanded. 
The Lancey Street School House was built in 1888, at 
a cost of $10,000. It is built of brick and accommo- 
dates three grades. Primary, Intermediate and Gram- 
mar. The Riverside School House was built in 1890 
and cost $4000; it is Intermediate and Grammar. In 
1897 the new Primary on Hartland Avenue was built 
to accommodate the younger pupils in the northern 
part of the village. Since that time the village has 
grown until the schools are again overcrowded and the 
need ol a new Intermediate school building is being 



24 HISTORICAL 

brought before the people. In 1892 a radical change 
in the school system was made, the district system was 
abolished and the entire charge of all town schools was 
given into the hands of the Supervising School Com- 
mittee. This was found to be a great improvement, as 
now all schools have the same number of weeks, 
thus giving every pupil an equal opportunity. There 
are but live rural schools now open, these are attended 
by about eighty pupils. The Schools are under the 
care of O. H. Drake the former principal of the Maine 
Central Institute.

Up to the year 1854, the site now occupied b}' this 
thrift}' manufacturing village was the home of only a 
few scattered families. It contained a saw mill, grist 
mill and shingle mill, the post office of East Pittstield, 
Lancey's Inn and three or four stores. There was no 
railroad connection with the outside world, but during 
that year the Penobscot & Kennebec Railroad, (now the 
Maine Central,) was extended from Waterville to 
Pittsfield, and the following summer completed through 
to Bangor. This raised the dignity of the humble 
hamlet to the position of a railroad centre for the sur- 



HISTORICAL 25 

rounding rural section. At the same time I. H. Lancey 
built a hotel, an unpretentious affair but adequate to its 
needs and the beginning ot the Lancey House ot 
today. 



WOOLEN MANUFACTURIES 



PIONEER MILL 

Going Hathorn bought Connor's saw and grist 
mills, situated near the long bridge when he came to 
town in 1832, but this broad minded and foreseeing 
man oi business saw greater opportunities in the un- 
bridled power of the Sebasticook as its unobstructed 
waters dashed down the rapids of its rocky bed where 
it had flowed for centuries. With a good capital at 
his command, Mr. Hathorn determined to construct 
and equip a mill tor the manufacture of woolen goods. 
The one-set mill opened in January, 1869, was the re- 
sult and the real beginning of this town's remarkable 
prosperity. The property was bought soon after by 
Robert Dobson, William Dobson and William Davis. 
Mr. Davis, a few 3ears after, sold his interest to Den- 
nison Walker and Robert Dobson and the present firm 
name of Robert Dobson & Company was established. 

Extensive additions and improvements have been 
frequently made until this is now said to be the largest 
woolen manufacturing establishment in the state, that 



26 HISTORICAL 

is not a corporation. The plant now operates twelve 
sets of cards with sufficient other machinery for a sixteen 
set mill. In 1870 the value of its annual output was 
$125,000. In 1893 it was over $450,000, when 230 
hands were em})lo3'ed in its production. Now 300 
hands are employed receiving tor their work $10,000 
monthly. During the year 1903 692 to 823 yards of 
finished goods were produced, valued at $120,687.20. 
Its officers are Wm. Dobson, Gordon Dobson and 
F. W. Briggs, the latter being superintendent 

RIVERSIDE WOOLEN MILL 

In 1883 Dennison Walker withdrew from the firm 
of Robert Dobson & Co and built this mill which was 
opened the following year under the name of the Maple 
Grove mill. In 1899 the mill was purchased by the 
Riverside Woolen Co., consisting of F. R. Smith, T. 
E. B. Knowles, and Ernest Maxheld. Mr. Maxfield 
and Mr. Knowles have since withdrawn. The present 
management consists of E. D. Smith, president and F. 
R. Smith treasurer. This is a four set mill employing 
125 hands who receive in wages from $40,000 to 
$45,000 annually. 

WAVERLEY WOOLEN MILL 

For several years the manufacturies in the village 
had coveted the excellent mill privileges offered by the 



HISTORICAL 27 

tall in the river about one mile from the railroad 
station. In 1892 the Waverley Woolen Co., was 
formed and the mill opened the following season. 
This mill runs nine sets of cards with sixty looms and 
employs 240 hands (175 men, 65 women) who receive 
about $Sooo monthly. The product is about 50,000 
yards of finished goods per month. The Waverley 
Woolen Company is a corporation with the following 
officers A. P. McMaster, president, Gordon Dobson, 
treasurer, S. R. Haines, superintendent. A. P. Mc- 
Master, William Dobson, J. F. Connor of Pittsfield, E. 
H. Blake of Bangor, C. S. Cushman of Boston and M. 
S. Holway of Augusta, directors. 

All three mills are now equipped with high power 
engines for use when the water supply is limited or 
unavailable. No children under the age of 15 are 
employed in any of these establishments. 



LUMBER MILLS 



The lumber business in Pittsfield has long been an 
important industry and is fast increasing. The orig- 
inal mill of the Pittsfield Electric Light & Power 
Company was established about thirty years ago, by T. 
S. Dexter in company with Mr. Sampson, for a shingle 
and long lumber mill. The present company bought 
the plant in 1896 and put in the electric lighting system 



25 HISTORICAL 

throughout the village. The spool mill was added two 
years later, but has gradually increased. The amount 
ot business done during the year 1903, b}' this company 
amounted to about $75,000, $35,000 worth of business 
by the spool department, about the same by the long 
lumber department and $6,000 by the electrical depart- 
ment. The spool mill employs iifty hands, mostly men, 
the long lumber department about twent}' hands, receiv- 
ing in all over $2000 per month for labor. During the 
coming season another room 40x60 feet, is to be added 
to the spool department, and other extensive improve- 
ments made thereby doubling the capacity of this already 
important industry. Thomas E. Kitchen of Foxcroft, is 
President, Frank L. Smith, Treasurer and Manager. 

Br3'ant's Long Lumber, Sash and Blind Mill 
was established in 1892, by Br3'ant and Woodruff, but 
three or four years later Mr. Br3'ant assumed full con- 
trol. The plant has several times doubled its capacity, 
lorty to tilty men are now em3'loyed receiving over 
$20,000 annually, and doing $100,000 to $150,000 worth 
of business. Everything required lor the construction 
of a tirst class house is handled. 



CLOTHING MANUFACTURY 

For twenty-five years following 1871, the manu- 
facture of clothing furnished employment to many, 



HISTORICAL 2C) 

mostly women, of this town. G. J. Pcndexter was the 
first to establish a business of this nature here. He 
manufactured coats, vests and trousers while in the 
business, but most of the clothing manufactured here 
has been trousers. George W. Kimball went into 
partnership with Mr. Pendexter in 1877, when they 
made 1800 pairs ot trousers a week. Since that time 
Mr. Kimball has remained continually in the business 
and is now sole owner. In the big hre of 1881 he 
was burned out, but immediately opened his shop in 
a new location. He now employs sixteen hands in his 
shop and furnishes work to many in their homes. 
Much ot the work now is custom work. Others who 
have carried on this business in town are Joseph H. 
Chapman, J. H. Rich, B. L. Fitzgerald, Charles Ber- 
deen, O. T. Merrow & Son, Gilman Gould, Llewellyn 
Gould, George Elliott and R. A. Conant, who also 
made shirts and overalls. 



MISCELLANEOUS 

Other important industries are the corn canning 
factory of the Northern Maine Packing Co.; The 
Somerset County Creamery; Hunter McMaster & Go's 
grist mill, John Maxtield, miller; H. A. Morrill's brick 
yard, and S. S. Smith and A. L. Shattuck carriage 
makers. 



30 HISTORICAL 

Pittsfield now has a National Bank incorporated in 
1890. J. W. Manson is president, H. T. Libby, treas- 
urer, and a Trust Co., incorporated last 3'ear with J. M. 
Chalmers, president; W. L. Pushor, treasurer. 

The first regular newspaper printed here was the 
"Pittstield Times" established in 1876 by Smith & 
Pendleton, but this did not continue lor a long time. 
In 1882 the Advertiser was established by Charles B. 
Haskell. It has since continued and improved, and is 
now a live up-to-date weekl}^ newspaper. 

It 1894 an efficient system of water suppl}^ was 
established for the village. This is now owned by the 
town. The stand pipe situated north of the village 
holds 225,000 gallons and is tilled Irom the river above 
the Waverly Mill, near which is located the pumping 
station. There are now sixty-eight public hydrants, 
eleven belonging to the several manufacturing con- 
cerns. These are all under high pressure, which 
together with a large supply of hose and an efficient 
fire department practically insures the town against 
accident in this direction. 

The future for Pittsfield is ver}' promising and not 
a few of her citizens see the form of a hustling manu- 
facturing city to be realized before the second decade 
of this century has passed. This is not without foun- 
dation for the big Sebasticook dam recentl}' con- 
structed on the river below the junction of its two 
branches, five miles below the village, will produce 
about twice as much power as all that is being used by 



HISTORICAL 31 

the three mills now in operation here and this power 
may be conducted electricall}' to turnish manulactiiring 
power at the village. The Sebasticook Power Co., was 
incorporated last season, Allen Hackett, president; 
J. W. Man son, secretary and treasurer. The Company 
will doubtless have control of the lighting of the village 
when its plant is completed. 



Professional Men 



LAWYERS 

Col. William Lance)', a Justice of the Peace, per- 
formed most of the early legal business in the eastern 
part of the town, and George Whitne}^, Esq., who was 
also Deputy Sheriti", that of the settlers in the west. 
J. B. Peaks opened a law office here in 1876, but C. A. 
Farwell was the tirst to locate here permanently in the 
profession. After him came Levi Greenleaf, William 
Seekins, and F. L. Hove}'. Those in practice now are as 
follows: J. W. Manson, Abel Davis, G. H. Morse, 
Judge O. H. Drake and T. A. Anderson. 

PHYSICIANS 

The first regular physician to locate in Pittsfield 
seems to have been J. C. Manson who came here about 



32 HISTORICAL 

18^55. Several came here who did not stop for a very 
long time. Dr. W. S. Howe, who served in the army 
during the war located here soon after its close. Then 
came Harris Pushor. 

Those in practice now are as lollows: F.J. Taylor, 
AL; T. M. Griffin, AL; T. N. Drake, E. A. Porter, Al.; 
C. A. McDonald, AL; C. S. Philbrick, J. H. Wilson, 
Eel. 

Dr. W. C. Harden died recently. Among Pitts- 
fields prominent physicians was also Dr. W. C. Harden 
recently desceased. 

DENTISTS 

Dr. E. C. Bryant, D. D. S., opened his dental 
office here in 1875. He did all the work of the place 
in his line until it became too extensive lor one dentist 
when H. L. Damon located in the village. 

VETERINARY SURGEON 

D. D. Winslow is Pittsfields efficient veterinary 
surgeon. 

EARLY TRADERS 

The first trader was Jesse Connor who opened 
a store in his house in 1814. In 1824 Col. William 
Lance}' came here from Palmyra, and soon opened a 



HISTORICAL 33 

store at his residence. We find that in May 1828 he 
was licensed to retail spirits for four months, and the 
following September he was licensed to be inn holder 
at his dwelling house. Going Hathorn came to Pitts- 
field from Gardiner in 1833 and bought the mills and 
store of Jesse Connor. In 1839, William K. Lancey, 
son of Col. William Lance}^, began trading at the age 
of eighteen. Later, H. Warren Lancey, his brother, 
was associated with him. In 1847 H. B. & J. C. Connor 
opened a general store on the west side of Main street. 
Lewis Wyman began about 1853. Obed Foss was at 
one tmie associated with Going Hathorn, they later 
sold to Dexter & McMann. Some other early traders 
were Morris Keene, F. D. Judkins, A. P. McMaster, C. 
E. Vickery, Nelson Vickery, D. W. Libb}', George H. 
Hunter, Pendexter & Chapman, J. H. Davis, H. A. 
Morrill, Benjamin Thompson, A. F. Dinsmore, Vance 
& Bean, S. Belgardt, W. N. Child, P. E. Dinsmore, H. 
C. Pooler, Runnels Brothers and John Dresser. 

POST-OFFICES 

The post-office in the western part of the town, 
was established about 1824, situated on the stage 
route trom Canaan to Bangor, the stage passing 
through Palm3'ra and Newport. Capt. Benjamin 
Adams was the first postmaster and George Whitney 
succeeded him, each holding the office for many years. 
Alma Richardson, Mr. G. P. Garfield, Mrs. G. Garfield 



34 



HISTORICAL 



and Alexander Raub complete the list. This office 
was discontinued last year when the Rural Free De- 
livery was established. The village post-office, first 
known as East Pittsfield office was established in 1830 
when it was kept bv James Willis near the foot of 
McCart}' hill. The earl}^ mails were often carried on foot 
to and from Palmyra. About 1849 H. B. Connor be- 
came postmaster. Succeeding him at long intervals 
are |. C. Connor, II. J. Brackett, H. F. Libb}', and 
Oramel Murray the present post master.

In the village so far as has been possible we have recorded the 
house numbers and streets, but the numbering system in'many instances 
is very incomplete and was incorrectly done. The residents of the 
mral dictricts of the town are listed under their respective routes. 
The following explanation may be serviceable in locating these 
families. As route number one covers most of the town, we will state 
it in the form of the proverbial Greek mle, viz: 

1. R. F. D. No. I, (A. F. Nelson, carrier) covers the entire 
rural section of Pittsfield except Spring Ridge road and North Main 
street. 

2. R. F. D. No 2, (George Estes, carrier), covers Spring Ridge 
and North Main street. The is circuit from the village by Mosher's 
Corner, Brown schoolhouse and Farnham's Corner, also the Detroit 
road covered by R. F. D. No. 3, Miss Nelson, carrier. 

3. The river road south of Carr school house, and the Snaberoot 
district, covered by Burnham R. F. D. No. i. 

. 4. Several families on route of the Canaan stage which are accom- 
modated by the the driver, this ronte is "Star Route No 1148." 

5. The Call district is the southwest corner of the 'town which is 
accommodated by the Burnham post-office. 



6o CENSUS 

6. Two families north and east of Sibley pond which get their niail 
at the Canaan office. 

In taking the following census of Pittsfield we have endeavored to 
include all that may be considered citizens or residents, but it will be 
readily understood that the names of many who were working in town 
just for the time, as is the case in all manufacturing centers, and 
which would notably be inlcuded in the United States census, would 
escape our list. We have not included non-resident students. 

Total number of residents, 2845. In village corporation 2228. 
In the rural districts 617. 

Total number west of the river 1997; east of the river 831; on the 
Island (so called) 17. 

Of the 2228 in the village corporation, there are west of the river 
1404; east of the river 807; on the island 17. 

Of the 617 in the rural disrricts, 593 are west of the river; 24 are 
ea.st of the river. 

There are probably around 200 floating population, aside from the 
students, whom we could not include in the census swelling the total 
population of Pittsfield for 1904 to a figure safely above 3000. 

There is but one post-office now in Pittsfield, but the town never 
before enjoyed so good postal facilities. Last year the office at West 
Pittsfield, after four score years service, was discontinued and the new 
rural free delivery system established, which has proven to be of 
much value to our rural distrcts. 

Indeed, it seems true that the country has better accommodations 
than the village. The latter covers a large part of its population. 
Many of the residents live from a half mile to a mile from the post- 
office and have no accommodations but to walk the distance. With 
nearly 2500 people within the village limits a postal delivery here 
would be almost as beneficial as are our rural .system.

MISCELLANEOUS 

PUBLIC LIBRARY 

Among the man}/ things which mark the rapid 
strides which have been made by the town of Pitts- 
field in the recent 3'ears there are none more pleasing 
to the citizens of the town than the new Public Library 
to be built this year. The building is the gift of Andrew 
Carnegie and Mr. Robert Dobson, late of Pittsfield and 
for many years a leading manufjicturer here. The 
cost will not be far from $15000, $10,000 of which is 
supplied by Mr. Carnegie and the $5,000 by Mr. Dobson. 

The site of the building will be at the corner of 
Main and Railroad streets. The building will be a 
very beautiful structure constructed of fine white 
pressed brick, with granite foundation and base trim- 
mings. The roof will be of metal, surmounted by a 
dome. It will be heated by steam and lighted by 
electricity. 

The builders are M. C. Foster & Son of Water- 
ville. 



PERAMBULATIONS 

The town lines of Pittstield have been frequently 
moved since its incorporation in 1819. In 1828 a 



HISTORICAL 135 

large tract was added to the town from Palmyra. In 
1829 Alex Potter and Shubael Dixon were set off from 
the town and annexed to Clinton. About this time 
many attemps were made by dissatisfied settlers to be 
set off from or to be annexed to the town. Moses 
Martin among others petitioning to be set off from 
Pittstield and annexed to Chandlersville (Detroit). 

About 1833 the first range and half the second 
were set off Irom Pittsheld on to Canaan by act of 
Legislature. 



VILLAGE CORPORATION 

A village corporation was organized in the spring 
of 1893, including school district No. 4, and No. 7. 
The object of this corporation was that the village 
might maintain a thoroughly efficient fire department, 
em'^ploy a night watch, and police force when neces- 
sary, light its streets and maintain its water works, etc., 
without imposing upon the rural section of the town 
the added expense of these village improvements. 
The idea met with considerable opposition at first, but 
the charter was adopted April 24, by a vote of 146 to 
144. Abel Davis was the first moderator. The first 
officers were: H. C. Pooler, clerk; N. L. Perkins, 
treasurer; Abel Davis, J. S. Spaulding, H. S. Chamber- 
lain, assessors; Abel Davis, agent. Last year the 
corporation raised for lighting streets $1200, night 



136 HISTORICAL 

watchman, $480; Fire Department, $400. Otlier 
charge $300, making a total of $2380. 



GRANGE 

Pittstield Grange was organized in 1876 but its 
charter afterwards given up. It was recognized about 
sixteen years ago. The present membership is about 
200 of the most intelHgent citizens. Officers: J. D. 
M. Foster, master; E. E. Libby, overseer; Mrs. Edith 
Phinney, secretary. New hall dedication February 2, 
1903. It is 38x70 feet, and cost about $5000.
